Mystery.
Suspense.
Thriller.
Dark Fantasy.
Gothic.
Horror.
Supernatural.Back when I blogged much more regularly (before children) I participated yearly. Finally, I am able to join in the macabre fun once again.

Putting together my list of possible reads for R.I.P is actually almost as fun as actually doing to reading. Expect this list to change as I go!

Annihilation by Jeff Vandermeer

A Gathering of Shadows and A Conjuring of Light by V.E. Schwab

The Alienist by Caleb Carr

Sympathy for the Devil by Tim Pratt

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern (reread)

A Discovery of Witches by Deborah Harkness

The Miniaturist by Jessie Burton

A Study in Scarlet Women Tby Sherry Thomas
